Ecoterrorism, the subject of Kelly Reichardt’s “Night Moves,” is a tricky topic to think about.
The 2014 FIFA World Cup kicks off today, and Gainesville bars are ready for the influx of customers during the month-long international soccer championship.

Gia Coppola’s directorial debut, “Palo Alto,” opening tomorrow at the Hippodrome State Theatre, is in some ways a mix of “Mean Girls” and “The Catcher in the Rye.” It’s a coming-of-age film that frankly addresses the sex, drugs, despondency and debauchery of adolescence, while at the same time mourning the loss of its characters’ childhoods.

“Le Week-End,” playing at the Hippodrome State Theatre until June 5, is a small marvel of a film. Though it deals with a subject that (on the surface) is hard for college students to relate to — the boredom that grows in a long relationship — “Le Week-End” is still full of small, often devastating truths about the human condition we can all relate to.
